Diesel's selling point isn't actually the performance aspect. It's the safety and productivity.

We're not going to settle the dynamic vs static debate in this thread, so I'll refrain from commenting on safety and productivity :-)

Anyway, I don't mean to dump on your work. It seems like it's actually quite a nice implementation. I'm just questioning 1) the size of the audience and 2) Whether or not the audience who thinks they want this should actually want this.

If the size of your audience is your overriding concern, you shouldn't be writing your ORM in Go or Rust.
